Bipod and grip apparatus used in air and fire rifles

ABSTRACT

A bipod and grip apparatus mounted to the rail system under the stock in fire and air rifles is disclosed. In particular, the bipod and grip apparatus is designed to ensure that the user can fire the rifle in a lying position or to fire by fastening the rifle to a predetermined position and to grip the rifle during firing without any discomfort.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The invention related to bipod and grip apparatus mounted to rail systemunder the stock in fire and air rifles.

In particular, the invention relates to bipod and grip apparatusdesigned to ensure user to fire rifle in a lying position in fire andair rifles or to fire by fastening rifle to a predetermined position andto grip rifle during firing without any discomfort.

STATE OF THE ART

The apparatus named bipod and hand grip is used which is located underthe hand stock during fastening fire and air rifles to ground or freelyuse, balances the rifle by means of opening legs when user desires tofasten rifle to ground, and which user uses as a support by holding itwith his one hand when desired to free use.

As can be seen in “FIG. 8” in the state of art, it is obvious that bipodsystem is comprised of more numbers of components. Disadvantages such asa plurality of components in this system comprised of eighteencomponents in total and wasting a significant time during mounting dueto small components and difficult mounting may occur.

Another disadvantage of the current system is yet that a polymer(plastic) pressure is applied on steel body in the legs. It is seen thatthose legs cannot bear overweight and can be broken.

Existence of the problems above mentioned and inefficacy of the currentsolutions require to carry out a development in the technical fieldpertaining to bipod and grip apparatus used in fire and air rifles.

OBJECTS OF THE INVENTION

Main object of the invention is to ensure user to fire rifle by taking alying position or fastening to a specific position in fire and airrifles.

Object of the invention is to ensure user to grip rifle during firingrifle without any discomfort.

Another object of the invention is to ease the mounting by decreasingthe number of components of subject matter bipod and grip apparatusaccordance with the state of art.

Further object of the invention is to prevent legs of bipod frombreaking by means of increasing the strength thereof.

Another object of the invention is to modularly use the designedapparatus as a bipod and hand grip.

The structural and characteristic features of the invention as well asall advantages will be better understood in the detailed descriptionprovided by use and reference to the figures given below, and for thatreason the assessment should be made based on the said figures anddetailed description.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

In this detailed description, the preferred embodiments of the bipod andgrip apparatus (A) subject to the invention are explained solely forabetter understanding of the subject, without generating any restrictiveeffect.

FIG. 1 illustrates the exploded view of the subject matter bipod andgrip apparatus (A). In its basic state; it comprises a body (1) on whichall members are assembled, a bipod cover (2) located between legs (4)and body (1) on which the legs (4) used to position rifle on the groundare fastened, side picatinny cover (3) to mount the system to rifle,legs (4) and spring (8) to open-close said legs (4).

In said bipod and grip apparatus (A); side picatinny (3) to be mountedon the body (1) are fastened using nuts (7) from opposite by means ofcentering it to screw housings (1-a) on the body (1) and trail screwhousings (3-a) on the side picatinny (3) with screws (6) (FIG. 1).Another centralizer housings on the body (1) of side picatinny (3) areside cover centering housing (1-c) in FIG. 2 and centering housing (3-c)in FIG. 4. Trail lean angles (3-b) on said side picatinny (3) arefastened on the body (1) by positioning it to trail housing (1-d) on thebody (1).

Centering housings (2-a) and cover locking lugs (1-e) on the body (1)corresponding to said centering housings (2-a) are formed so as to mountbipod cover (2) on the body. Bipod cover (2) is mounted rotating indirection of rotation (2-e) during mounting on the body (1). Said bipodcover (2) comprises a pin stopper (2-c) formed therein and on whichspring centralizer (5) leans.

In said bipod and grip apparatus (A); legs (4) are pinned to each otherby means of pins (9) from pin housing (4-a) and are mounted to bipodcover (2) by putting a tension spring (10) therebetween. Said pins (9)are positioned to pin grooves (1-f) in the body (1). Spring (8) andspring centralizer (5) are located in the body (1). Spring housing (5-a)in the spring centralizer (5) itself functions as centering the spring.

Locking lugs (4-c) and locking windows (2-b) provided so as to mount andlock the legs (4) to body (1) together with bipod cover (2) user to easymount and demount the component. When said legs (4) are in an openposition in the bipod cover (2), they lean on the leg leaning housings(2-d).

Locking lugs (4-c) are formed on the legs (4) so that legs (4) carry outthe locking function in the bipod and grip apparatus (A). Said lockinglugs (4-c) are locked to the surface in the bipod cover (2). Lowerportions of said legs (4) are formed by leg base (4-b) and its bodiesare formed by leaning surfaces (4-d).

Another aspect of the invention is that it can be used as grip alongwith use as bipod. By de-mounting bipod cover (2) under the body (1)together with the legs (4), grip cover (11) is attached its place and itis rotated in the direction of rotation (2-e).
